[@MrNoahjacobson]

Hey, ex-mechanic here - In my experience almost every single wheel bearing I've had to press or pull off has separated like yours did here. Just wanted to share my two cents on the matter. My method that keeps the time and curse words spent to a minimum is to cut the inner races off. I use an air powered cut off wheel, but anything similar would do. The trick is to cut almost all the way through, but not fully through so you don't damage the spindle. Then, smack the cut with a cold chisel. If you've cut enough away it'll crack and the cold chisel acts as a wedge to open the race, making removal easy and avoiding damaging anything with a torch.

[@bigtb1717]

That was my first thought too. But it depends on what tools you have handy. Sometimes the old heat-n-beat is the only option you have.

[@chrisk6309]

Always leave one thing broken that you can put up with. If you fix it something else will break that is difficult.

[@Windows98R]

I had this clapped out Audi that I drove during early college/late highschool. It leaked like a bastard (or consumed oil at the same rate as gas) so once I started working during university, I took it to a friend's shop to get it fixed. They told me I should probably leave it and keep feeding it oil unless it got so bad that I'll get pulled over. Didn't understand why then until I actually had it fixed after graduating and yes it required a junkyard engine. I was fine then since I had a main car on lease but if that engine out was during my school years, I would've been screwed. So yes, sometimes leaving it as is is was the best option.

[@Beakz_]

Can confirm. I've done pretty much every last thing there is to do to my track car, replaced/rebuilt the motor 4 times, full suspension rebuilds, custom parts I designed to prototype for future production potentially, effectively given this car the best mechanical treatment any car could ask for. And it never fails to have something else come up every friday. I just say "I have a toxic relationship with my car. I hemorage money into it, and it spits in my face and asks for more peasant. And its not even in a fun kinky way, but in a psychologically abusive one". I love it, but only because I'll never financially recover from selling it for market value. Stockholm syndrome in the car world.

Something to try before giving up on Bruce as a bandaid: Add some Berryman B12 into the cylinder with the plug and coil removed, let it sit for 6-12 hours, turn it over without the plug in to push the fluid out, and then re-test. It won't FIX the problem completely, but if it's a ring that is stuck, the Berryman can clean the soot off the ring and free it up to restore compression.

Personally I'd bore scope it and see if the cylinder's borkus if not, haul that piston out and see if the rings are fouled with old oil and carbon. Doesn't happen as regular with LPG with it being a lighter, cleaner burning fuel but it's not impossible!! The other option is it's been consuming a little oil and that's been building up carbon resulting in the rings fouling but uh yeah - I'd try Garage54-ing it, pull the piston out and clean it up to see if that gets it to seal again before attempting a full rebuild.

The suggested video at the end being "Bruce is alive" 😭 insult to injury, KZbin!

[@eggman9713]

It's even more upsetting when you realize that it's due in no small part to the enshittification of everything that we as a species make anymore. It started long before Bruce was even off the drawing board, and it's only worse now. A legendary engine now in hospice.

[@kaitlyn__L]

Yep :( bad gaskets, bad chains, bad bolts. Sigh.

[@dimondminer4754]

you have taught me more about working on cars than my tech school, you would make a great auto teacher, im convinced ill get my bug running just off of your vids. thanks Danks...

[@Guy_6397]

Recently found your channel and love it. The old school music in the background of each video really sets you apart, please never change it.

The leaky valve cover gasket literally allowed Bruce to run properly

[@Jake-rs9nq]

This must've been a pre-existing issue, stopping the oil leak brought the compression back down. Ironic.

[@KingOfAllJackals]

The oil would have had to get past the spark plug threads which is tough to imagine.

Watching James reef on that hub bearing woth the impact had me like, "ain't no f*cking way, that thing is ROUND now" 🤣

[@WalrusStu]

It's so funny that the music changes when they're in the store. It's like they're in a videogame and each place has different music.

Hitting a roo in a falcon is the most aussie thing ever

[@NortOfficial]

I wouldn't even run this fast if my Granny was dead.. what a sad day

[@Alphabetbubi]

I want to see Bruce back on the road guys! ENGINE REBUILD! ENGINE REBUILD!

[@Yeeter_Inbound]

the part where he puts the wheel bearing nuts on with the impact driver had me dying LMAO 😭😂

[@nickwallette6201]

This is how I feel working on retro games and computers. Go in to clean one and change the CMOS battery, end up recapping the PSU. Before you know it, you’re 3D printing new case parts to replace the ones that broke off during reassembly.

[@blurreaper1238]

It's the Goober. The Goober is jinxing the entire unit for all the pain you've put it through 😂

[@elektroanoled]

9:30 perfect opportunity to say "james can't get it up"

[@GaucamoleMan52]

Rest in parts bruce sleep well

[@parusoftie]

rest in peace for the second time, bruce...

[@InvaderNate]

Just did front wheel bearings on my Acura, CL chassis accords everywhere else but north america, its the same way where half of the inner race comes off on the hub. My solution for it was to dremel a slot and drive a cold chisel into the slot to split the inner race. Very hard metal, so its good and brittle too. The things we do for the cars we love.

[@FumblsTheSniper]

That impact wrench ripped off my soul.
